P. v. Perez CA4/1
During an investigation of a referral from Child Protective Services in December of 2017, Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2, granddaughters of Perez who were respectively 12 and 13 years old at the time, told a social worker that Perez had touched them “inappropriately.” The social worker contacted police and referred the girls for forensic interviews.
B. Forensic Interviews
Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2 were interviewed by a child forensic interviewer. The interviews were recorded by video and audio.
Jane Doe 1 told the forensic interviewer that Perez had touched her “a lot” and described several incidents. The first incident that Jane Doe 1 recalled occurred when she was 11 or 12 years old and Perez drove her in his semi-truck to a truck stop; while they were inside the truck, he pulled down her pants, touched her vagina, kissed and licked it, and inserted his finger into it. Jane Doe 1 also told the interviewer that Perez had inserted his penis into her vagina “[a] bunch of times.”
